Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Reprinted 1963. This is an ex-library copy but a clean and tidy one. The interior of the book is clean and tight, with small ownership stamps on the front and back free end papers, some dog-eared pages, and a small dent on the edge of the pages. The red covers are bright and are in very good condition, with just a bit of light wear at tips and corners. The dust jacket is in very good condition, with no library label. It has been protected in a removeable plastic cover since it was published, so has very little wear and no damage. Overall, then, an attractive reading copy, but no more. Synopsis: The adventures of Captain Charles Carey, Cadogan's Regiment of Dragoons, who fought under Marlborough. Carey becomes a spy in French territory, and is entrusted with a perilous mission that calls forth not only his outstanding skill as a swordsman, but also his reserves of courage and resource. His most dangerous opponent is the cunning Rupert Creighton, who works with the French Intelligence; but Charles also finds himself faced with a deep and mysterious treachery directed personally against himself.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. This is an ex-library copy, with all the expected stamps, labels, tape and pockets. However, the interior is clean and tidy, and the dust jacket isn't in bad condition overall. The jacket has light edgewear overall, but a large sticker pull on the spine where someone (not me!) removed the library label. The attached scan gives a better idea of condition. Synopsis: "For the King or for Parliament? This is the choice that confronts young Neil Carey. His elder brother Denzil, an ardent Royalist, is already at court, but Neil's cousin and great friend, Francis Vaughan, is a strong supporter of Parliament. Neil is reluctant to take part in the Civil War, but he follows his father in declaring his support for the King's cause, and with the fiery little soldier, Owen Price, rides off to join the Royalist army.
